Why did the brits issue this helmet during ww2? Other helmets were more some shaped, so why did the brits use this dinner plate thing?
What advantage did it have?
>>30392143
The dyes in the machines that stamped a circular plate of steel into a helmet didn't need to be changed
>>30392143
Shade
Brits fought tons in hot places like Africa or Burma, so it was important to prevent sunburn and heatstroke.

Honesty time. I have enough guns to provide all those I care about with one and backups for those. I have enough ammo to teach my children and thwirs how to shoot and hunt for food. I have enough ammo to use for a few weeks of intense fighting. I'm ok. I worry about you fucks not having your shit together. Wear a /k/ patch.

Honestly, Hawaii already has shit tier gun laws. Mandatory registration of all firearms within five days of purchase, 72 goddamn hours if you move to that shit hole of a state. You have to be fingerprinted to register your firearms. For every pistol you buy you need a separate license to purchase, that you get from the police, amd it takes 2-3 weeks for the permit to purchase a handgun. Rifles the permit is good for one year.
They have an "assault pistols" law that restricts what pistols you...

Nope. If you actually live there, you MUST be retarded. They are Cally tier in gun laws.

If the ATF wanted to do... whatever you suspect they want to do... they'd be morons not to do it on armslist users instead.
Hey \k\ I am looking into making a bolt gun in .223 that will take stripper clips. I'm looking into the savage 11 hog hunter, remington model 7 laminate or the cz527 as a base.
I plan on using the ironsights and mounting a short pic rail on the front ring to mount a QD red dot.
Has anyone used, manufactured or know of anyone that has the skill to manufacture the device in the picture?
really? no input?
I dunno mang. a .223 bolt action just seems like wasted effort. Giving up the top screws removes any scope mounting. Doesn't seem worth it to gimp a rifle just so you can stripper clip
>>30392536
Because stripper clips and a red dot on a modern bolt action is fucking stupid
YOU FUCKERS SAID IT WASN'T REAL!
WHY AM I SO FUCKING POOR?!
>>30391696
just buy a fucking rhino for christ's sake
>>30391750
Yeah, and why don't you just go buy a glock instead of a Desert Eagle?
>>30391759
There more closterester than that
Hey all, I'm going to be getting into the market to buy my first hand gun and j was looking for some suggestions and advise. I'm looking in the $300-$400 range but can go a little higher if need be. I was thinging about a Smith and Wesson SD9VE because I had the chance to test fire one a few days ago. Felt good in the hands and all but that trigger pull is a mile long. Any ideas?

youre welcome
Forgot to add that it'll be for home defense and plenty or range time. Can't carry in my state.
>>30391716
Seems a little too small to me.
>>30391753
Either some glock or my favorite XD service. I won't shill for one of the other both are excellent choices. Alternatively police trade P226

Haven't seen one of these in a while. Let's get a good ol' sight picture thread going.
Bonus points for pics taken at approximately the same distance as proper eye relief so the sight picture looks proportionally correct.

A couple of years ago I went, "Fuck it, I'm buying an old sword." and went to all of the nearby antique stores. None of them had anything, but one of the better stores took my number and told me they'll call me if they get anything in. Today I finally got a call, they got in two swords from the 1800s. One was a Masonic Cerimonial sword, boring and bad condition, but they also had a "1800s combat sword", which was far more interesting. So I took some pictures, asked them to hold it for me, and now I'm here, hoping you guys can tell me something...

PX4 is bretty gud if you like DA/SA and decocker safeties.
It's one of LifeSizePotato's favourite 9mm pistols if that means anything
2 3/4", 3", or 3.5"?
Should I even bother looking at 2 3/4" 12 Ga. shotguns?
>>30391204
it's very rare that you even need 3" shells. 2 3/4" should be examined carefully just because that means the shells are old, but practically there's very little reason for them.
>>30391204
what are the pros of shorter shells?
bigger is better right?
